Default Any project ideas for a Ferarri transaxle like this?

Earlier this summer Eric and I stopped at Tom Hanna's shop on our way to Columbus, Tom mentioned he had a few Ferarri tranaxles laying around that he did not know what he would use them for. I called him at a later date to inquire if one could be bought. He said if I got both to work I could have 1. So now the wheels begin turned, What should this go it? They are from a ferarri 456 I think it is. The internal guts are based off a GM 4T80 trans that is just a front wheel drive 4L80 trans. The trans is behind the rear axle center line. So rear weight and interior space are in my favor.

I have a few ideas, But what do you guys think?
